Random Sampling from multiple databases
Forums
Hi Brian,
I am new to scripting but hoping you can help assist. I have 100+ databases each named "Fund XXX". Each fund contains a column heading "trans" signifying a specific transaction code. I need to select 4 random samples with the "trans" code "SELL" from each of the funds. I then need to export these 4 selections to a database saved as "Fund XXX Sell Random Sample". Nothing needs to be in excel, everything can remain in IDEA.

Editor for IDEA scripting
Forums
Hi Brian,
I am using the German version of IDEA 9.2 (and have not seen the Canadian original yet). However, I am not really happy about the editor which is included in the software. For testing purposes it is sometimes convenient to comment a whole block of code. I could not find a function to do it in this editor.
Do you use the standard editor for scripting in IDEA or can you recommend a different one?
Best,
Bobby

Here is some example code:

Function updateFunctionNames(ByVal fileToRead As String) As String
Dim oldFunctionsName() As String 'array to hold the old function names
Dim newFunctionsName() As String 'array to hold the revised function names
ReDim oldFunctionsName(0)
End Function

Scheduling Scripts
Forums
This is a bit of a discussion on the IDEA boards about scheduling scripts. It seems that users have had mixed results with the window scheduler. I have never used the scheduler with my scripts so I don’t really have an opinion. One of the users recommended the following product for scheduling scripts: http://www.splinterware.com/products/wincron.htm I have never used it but thought I would share if anyone else ever has any problems w
